Summary
Six goes to a support group to make Claire happy. Senanigans ensue.
In which Six has a sexuality crisis, Ken is a being of pure sunshine, Driver would kill to protect his loved ones, K is tired of everything, Richard and Henry are messy as always, Barbie is intimidating as hell, and Claire was probably right the whole time.
Update: 5/27/26
Ryland is back on Earth and totally normal about touch and human interaction, thank you very much. He's only going to this support group so Rocky will get off his ass. I mean, there's no way anyone there is going to understand how he feels.Right?

of course ryan gosling's characters live in the same universe
opened my eyes to Lars/Ryland dynamic (Grace is kinda... world-translator for Lars sometimes, it's very sweet) + great Colt voice -

Summary
The driver has a very strange relationship with pain. It’s one of the many, many pieces of himself that he knows don’t fit the way they do with other people: one of the things that makes him not much of a person at all. No. That isn’t quite right. The two are tied. The day pain stopped meaning much to Driver was the day it stopped being a person.
(He is sixteen, when he gets that car. The feeling that envelops him, that first night in his— his!— car, is both totally foreign and the softest thing the driver has ever felt. Something surges through Driver’s chest, hot and fierce and strong. The sound that bubbles out of him is somewhere between a laugh and a hiccuping sob, but Driver doesn’t care. It feels good.)
Or, Driver's turbulent relationship with being a person, featuring a different approach to the canon story.

Summary
"You never answered my question earlier."
He glances over to see who Jody's talking too, and nearly jumps out of his skin to see shes watching him still.
"What?"
Nice one, Colt.
She raises an eyebrow, "What are you doing here?"
Now it's his turn to be confused. "… What? Uhm," he raises his glass in gesture, "having a drink, I think?"
"Right," she hums, taking a sip at the same time as him, scanning him with a confused look before she looks behind her at the rest of Charlotte's, and he squirms in his seat, "why here?"
Oh.
--
After the first couple weeks of Colt's first big stunt film, the crew finally gets a couple days off. He decides to go unwind at his favorite lesbian speakeasy when Jody shows up as well, and they start trying to figure each other out.Series
